You need to keep up with all these rumors. There's only like a new one everyday.

MSRP could be set to "under 30" but the dealers can sell it whatever they want...and it will probably be well over at first...and eventually die down.....


I'd really wait to get a EVO, just like how the WRX was limited at first...but then u see tons on the road. My boy just got one and he got it fully loaded signed payed every penny for 23k....

If thats the case i rather just go get a WRX and pay 23k.....

Here are the cars I would buy before I spent 37k on an Evo:
1.390hp '03 Cobra (runs 11's with only a couple mods, AND handles and brakes good (stock Brembo made brakes)) for 34,xxx
2. WRX for 23k ... and about 7k in mods. 30k total
3. Infiniti G35 for 30k. Is beating most sedans in handling, braking, etc. right now....260hp stock and an upcoming supercharger.
4. Maybe even consider a low mileage Audi S4 or a new A4 quattro for 30k ... 5k in mods ... 35k total

Show me an Evo for 29-31k and I wont even consider these other cars

The car is the same size as an OZ, it weighs less than an EVO VII.

the first post in this thread contradicts many things we've said and i don't buy into much of them. maybe i'm a fool, but i don't think any MSRP will even flirt with $37,000
that's a lot of money
